Why We Think BrainPaint® Is the Best Choice for Home Neurofeedback

BrainPaint® is a brilliant neurofeedback software program that more people should know about. The system has many features that make it our system of choice for home use. We are here to make BrainPaint® available to individuals and families in the USA or Canada who live an unreasonable travel distance from an existing provider (typically more than 50 miles), and for organizations. Here are the top reasons to use BrainPaint® for you and your loved ones in the comfort of your home:

The system is user-friendly—great for home use.

BrainPaint® is so user-friendly that we train you to use it responsibly in about 2.5 hours, with ongoing professional support to keep you on track. The system is a complete package—you only need to have some iodized salt and some paper towels. BrainPaint® software helps home users to have confidence in their ability to do their training. It’s hard to make mistakes. We guide your training process by helping you identify goals, and to recognize measurable results.

Most people can handle up to 2 thirty-minute sessions per day, which contributes to rapid training and cost savings. Clients report that 2 sessions a day lead to more rapid results. BrainPaint® home user systems are $675 per month for one user (only $100 per month for each additional) as compared to $85-$150 per single in-office session plus travel time and costs.

Unlike one-size-fits-all home neurofeedback systems, these protocols are directed at your particular patterns of brain waves as determined by a 90-question functional evaluation. Individualized protocols used in BrainPaint® were validated in a large randomized control study, and further validated by data from over 21,000 BrainPaint® clients. This non-identified data from BrainPaint® presents evidence of clients reporting their symptoms as either better or resolved (as opposed to same or worse) after 2, 5, 10, and 20 sessions:

BrainPaint® doesn't require expensive brain maps.

In-office neurofeedback providers typically use “brain maps” to make these personalized evaluations, but they are expensive and resulting protocols can be more subjective depending on provider training and experience. The professionally-guided evaluations used with BrainPaint® are effective in identifying the best training protocols, without the need for costly of brain-mapping or travel. We do recommend BrainPaint® with your local provider and want to stress that our services are for those who do not live within a reasonable driving distance (typically 50 miles or more) from an existing provider. (See locations.) But, in any case, your brain training regimen will be determined by BrainPaint®'s more cost-effective and evidence-based method.

One example of BrainPaint® protocols at work: PTSD.

The BrainPaint® protocols that are often recommended for use with trauma, addictions and peak performance are identical to those used in research studies that resulted in 100% of Vietnam veteran subjects gaining long-term recovery from PTSD. (More info.) These protocols also resulted in 77% of substance dependent subjects being sober one year after treatment as compared to 44% of control subjects. (More info.) These “Scott / Peniston” protocols are named in part after BrainPaint® developer, Bill Scott.

Other special features that make BrainPaint® an industry leader:

The software generates multidimensional feedback, giving your brain a complex range of audio and visual feedback for optimal learning. The beautiful animated (40 frames per second) fractal graphics that give “BrainPaint” its name are one element, which is enhanced with several other more linear forms of visual reward. Audio feedback was designed by top Hollywood sound producers to reflect your brainwave activity at 30 different frequencies. Additional audio feedback is more linear and enhances training. Everyone, especially children, can enjoy making pictures and music with their heads. (More info.)

BrainMaster, the amplifier used by BrainPaint®, is FDA approved and is set for auto-thresholding. This means that the amplifier regularly calibrates the protocol (set challenges to increase/decrease different frequency ranges) and meets your brain where it’s at. Auto-thresholding held up in research, demonstrating equal results to a seasoned neurofeedback professional who used manual thresholding.

The “Movement Shaper” feature helps trainees to learn to sit still and relax facial muscles so they can maximize their EEG biofeedback training rather than training muscle artifact. This is particularly helpful for children who self-stimulate through physical movements or who have facial or upper body tics.

Professionally endorsed.

BrainPaint® has strong endorsements, including being selected in 2012 by StartUp Health as one of the top 10 health care innovations in the nation (http://www.startuphealth.com/c/369/BrainPaint).

We love what we do, and it shows with the results our clients report. BrainPaint® is cutting edge and can help you and your family to get a neurofeedback brain training for optimal functioning. Our program works best for those who are ready for a positive change in their lives—are you ready?

Train Your Brain, Clear Your Mind, Enjoy Your Life.

As BrainPaint® is effective, relatively inexpensive, and with a negligible side-effect profile, it represents an important, innovative intervention.
